“The Opera House Hotel in the Bronx impresses with its thoughtful service and surprisingly spacious rooms, especially given its price point. Its proximity to the subway simplifies trips into Manhattan, making it a practical base for city explorations. While the immediate neighborhood might raise eyebrows initially, the hotel itself is secure and well-maintained, offering a comfortable and culturally rich experience.”
